What you forget is that the reverse equation is also true, plants don't just give that sugar away, they respire, releasing CO2 as well. This is true both in day time and at night (where there's no photosynthesis).
1. They claimed that the blackdown port of Java to linux was theirs!
An admitted mistake.
3. They "adopted" and FSCKED UP ROYALLY the XML4J/LotusXSL stuff that IBM had created and mangled out that god-forsaken peice of crap known as JAXP.
Uh.. XML4J was a parser IBM donated to Apache. It turned into Xerces, which FYI is quite stable and nice. JAXP is a framework for parser/transformer hooks. I don't quite follow your point?
4. At one time, Scott McNealy admitted that Sun had indeed been the brainchild behind XML.
The working group behind XML was indeed formed and lead by John Bosak, a Sun employee.
Out of personal interest, would you know a good source on semistrucured data? It seems common consensus that semistructured data can be modelled as graphs with labels on edges, whereas XML has labeled nodes. Is there a such thing as a definition of semistructured data other than "schemaless, self-describing"?
Those who say that XML is simple are IMO not correct. XML can be veru complex, you cannot just make up new tags - they have semantic value in respect to a given target. This means that you have to have a target application that understands your XML, not much simplicity there. XML is not a language, it's a syntax. The syntax is easy, agreed, but implementations may have any complexity level.
XHTML is an XML schema. It's HTML that's valid XML, ie. it conforms to the XHTML DTD/Schema. For most it suffices that it's well-formed XML and as such can be parsed into a DOM tree by any XML parser.
If Java crashes, it may take the VM down. Not
other apps. This is why Java is a good choice for
eg. mobile units (phones, PDAs..). Naturally people
can screw up on the VM, but at least Joe Blow cannot
take down your embedded OS by his Downer.java.
You have 4 years of experience, then you definatly don't need a CS education unless you feel a need for theoretical input for your everyday situations (algorithmic performance analysis, threading etc) or wish to delve into the theory of parsers, OS etc.
What do you wish to accomplish? A future employer doesn't care what degree you have, as long as you have one. All your degree does is to signal to the surroundings that you can learn and want to learn.
I started out studying engineering and took my masters in the more CS heavy section of IT. I'm at a point where my skills are plenty for any job in my field of expertise, but if I want to go career, I probably could use some business courses. As such, I regret taking some of the hardcore CS courses that deal with stuff I'll never use rather than some soft entry level business courses that certainly would help when trying to become a business oriented tech.
Whatever you chose, just remember that you need to focus on where it has the potential to take you, and if that's where you really want to go. Also, don't study something that doesn't interest you, as that will surely quelch your motivation.
When I studied engineering we used to pretend that we studied marine biology - saving whales, dolphins and shit. The chicks loved it. I think the guy must be too serious whenever he talks about marine biology to females, don't mention seaweed and rotten fish - go for the juicy baywatch like stuff:)
Agreed. You know that you're good - and that may be the problem. There's nothing that can piss people off the way the arrogance of youth can. Be humble towards your co-workers, it will get you a lot further. The time to not be humble is when you're negotiating for something with your boss.
To what purpose? I'd say that bandwidth is the limiting factor in 9 out of 10 cases, no? So unless the site you're downloading from has a bandwidth/connection policy, the accelerator doesn't help you a whole lot.
Jini is a beauty. Sun's marketing engine is just not capable of boosting more than one product, which is why the J2EE suite is so much more widely accepted. Eventually the functionality offered by Jini can/will be replaced by XML/HTTP, but that does not make the ideas and design any less interesting.
Do you know anything about Jini at all? If not, I'd like to fill you in. In short it's an infrastructure for building dynamic distributed systems and I believe that it contains all the features you'd expect in a system designed for that.
Oh man have I been there. But then I got addicted to the RL MUD and its pleasant moments. Advancing levels and increasing your skills in RL MUD is so much more satisfactory than in any other MUD I've tried.
In the RL MUD things are a bit harder though. It's hard to get recognition because of your skills and stats because the RL MUD has a massive amount of players (~6 billion at the moment). But once you accept your stats and play them fairly, it's a really awarding experience to give into it.
At the peaks of RL MUD I fear the moment where whoever controls me has to sleep and types 'quit'. This game has so much more to offer than any other game I've tried - what was once sensed sensations have become real.
The best experiences I've had from any virtual MUD are those shared with people who I actually took the time to get to know, and not least meet in the RL MUD. Food for thought.

JBoss Founder Interview

Why would a client pick you to deliver an application because of your sysadm skills for application server Random vX.Y? If you make your application correctly (possibly with a few work arounds), your application should deploy equally well on all three.
Weblogic and Websphere have one thing that JBoss will never get directly - a corporation that backs the product and promptly deals with support. And that is what you pay for.

It's easier to copy an MS Office CD, install it and write the resume than it is to either
a. Download open office, install and use that
b. Use TeX
c. Admit you suck and use an AbiWord rpm/deb
If they're that dumb, how do they pass the advanced classes in OS theory, algorithms, concurrency etc?
